Erin Kelso

Erin Kelso has a beautiful traditional fairy tale type style that leaves me in awe. If I could combine the cultural styles with elements of traditional fairy tale illustration (since the stories I'm looking at are fantastical), even in something as simple as colour, that would be great. She also uses touches of gold in her work, taken from images of real gold leaf, which would benefit any cultures with a lot of use of gold, for example Russian art.
